Personally I don't use the xhost thang. I don't mind bash running as root but I don't even want to accidentally start some GUI program as root and then have to clean up the mess. apt is all you need for managing Debian packages, and your choice of non-GUI editor for editing config files. --Mike ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
